The president Javier Milei returned from Antarctica, where he traveled in the last 24 hours to initiate a cooperation agreement between the government and the International Atomic Energy Agency, with the aim of advancing the control of plastic pollution. Upon his return, he gave an interview on Radio Miter in which he made a balance of his first month in office and referred to the economic situation of the country. In this framework, he was consulted regarding the Government's expectation in relation to the inflation figure for December, which will be announced in the coming days. “If we look at the first and second week of December, that placed the inflationary dynamic at 45% monthly, so if you see a number of 30, it is a great number,” said the Head of State in relation to the increase. of prices. And he highlighted: “I want it to be clear that if it is 30% it is a big number, we came for 45 . It would mean that we managed to knock down a third. It's still a disaster.”
The president insisted that the rise in the price index had accelerated and interpreted that if the INDEC measures the CPI at around 30% for the last month of 2023, that will be something positive. “It means that the work we are doing is monstrous,” he said, while praising the performance of the Minister of Economy, Luis Caputo. “In annual dynamics, we lowered inflation by a third. Anyway, is an inflationary disaster ”, he acknowledged.
In relation to how he evaluates the first days of management, the President expressed that he is “very satisfied”. In this regard, he expressed: “We have presented a consistent stabilization program , tough, with a spirit of orthodoxy that has been rescued in different parts of the world.”
In another part of the interview, Milei defended the Decree of Necessity and Urgency that seeks to deregulate the economy and the Omnibus Law that he sent to Congress, with the same objective. “I did what I have to do, they are responsible”, emphasized the Head of State, pointing out against the “resistance” of the opposition to those measurements.

The national leader reiterated his criticism of those who oppose it, demanding a segmented treatment of the content of the law, arguing that the package includes dissimilar themes. “It's because they want to bribe, that's why they want to break it up,” Milei insisted.
In dialogue with journalist Gabriel Anello, the president reiterated that he will not negotiate the division due to issues of the omnibus law and expressed confidence that the ruling party will achieve its approval. “We call the DNU a liberation decree. It is pro market, political vices are eliminated, nonsense. But useful idiots focus on forms,” he stated.
Milei's statements occur prior to the parliamentary treatment of the 11 laws that the Executive Branch sent to Congress to debate in the extraordinary session that will last until January 31. In this framework, the so-called Law of Bases and Starting Points for the Freedom of Argentines -known as the “Omnibus Law”- is the main article of that legislative agent, where the bulk of the first reforms that the libertarian intends to implement are found.
From the opposition, both from the legislators of Unión por la Patria, non-Kirchnerist Peronism as well as some sectors of what was Together for Change (JxC) have publicly expressed differences with the ruling party's bill and demanded that negotiations be enabled to produce changes.

“To other governments that curtailed freedoms and put their hand in our pockets, there was no resistance from the political caste,” he said. the President in the interview with Radio Miter. “Now in this case, where we are returning freedoms to the people and moving to a more pro-market, pro-competitive structure and we are ending political vices, there they complain, he then encouraged.
In the same sense, Milei crossed those who question the constitutionality of the Mega DNU. “The decree is an instrument that has been used by all governments and is in the Constitution. They complain and attack it as unconstitutional when it is in the Constitution,” said the President and attacked: “There are others who are useful idiots who focus on the forms, when in reality it is part of the dynamic.” The Head of State asked to “be clear” that given the “magnitude of the adjustment”, they need a quick investment response “so that the damage in terms of activity is as little as possible and we can lower inflation as quickly as possible.” a>
During the report, Milei also gave details of his trip to Antarctica, where he made a brief visit and launched a plan against environmental pollution. The President was received at the Argentine bases on the Antarctic continent by the head of the Marambio station, the vice commodore of the Air Force, Ariel Rizzo.
